Lyrics

I could have left before

The speaker regrets not leaving earlier.

I knew my time was up

Realizing the inevitability of the end.

But I did nothing

Regretting inaction in the face of impending change.

Now I'm left with nothing

The consequence of doing nothing is a loss.


Nothing to feel

Feeling devoid of emotions.

No grief

Lack of sorrow.

No joy

Absence of happiness.

Only this ever growing hole

An increasing sense of emptiness.


My time is extended

Time seems prolonged, but unfairly so.

Unfairly drawn out

Extended time intensifies the emptiness.

Only for the emptiness to spread

The extended time only allows emptiness to grow.


Forgotten

Feeling ignored and abandoned.

Alone

Experiencing loneliness.

Stripped

Stripped of something significant.

Abandoned

Feeling deserted and left behind.


No use in fighting it now

Acceptance that resistance is futile.

No point in resisting

Recognizing the pointlessness of resisting change.

Time to leave

Acceptance that it's time to depart.

Time to forget

Acknowledging the need to forget and move on.

Time is up

The realization that time has run out.
